Experimental Study of the Concrete Cracking Behavior of an Immersed Tunnel under Fire
This study investigates the impact of fire on the cracking behavior of immersed tunnels. A reduced-scale (1:5) model of an immersed tunnel was constructed to conduct fire tests in both traffic tubes using the HCinc curve as the applied fire.

Effect of Crack Interval on Multiple Crack Propagation Behavior
In the authors' previous study, fatigue crack propagation tests were performed using four-point bending specimens with multiple parallel edge notches at regular intervals of 10 mm. In this study, similar tests were carried out using the specimens with crack intervals of 5 mm or 2.5 mm.

An investigation into cracking in nickel-base superalloy repair welds [PDF]
The nickel-base superalloy Rene 80 is considered very susceptible to liquation and strain-age cracking. Material in the solutionised condition is welded using the Cold Metal Transfer, or CMT process (with ductile filler alloy) and autogenously using a

Stress State and Key Influencing Factor in High Burnup Nuclear Fuel Particle
Advanced nuclear reactors are currently moving toward longer fuel cycles and higher burnup levels. Besides, high burnup levels can improve fuel economy and reduce the total amount of spent fuel in reactors.

Fatigue crack growth behavior of surface crack in rails
AbstractRolling contact fatigue damages on the surface of rail such as head check, squats are one of growing problems. Since rail fracture can cause derailment with loss of life and property, the understanding of rail fracture mechanisms is important for reducing damages on the surface of rail.
